Gunmen suspected to be Militants on Thursday unleashed terror on security operatives in Bayelsa
State, killing soldiers and policemen at different points
along the state’s waterways.
It was reported that unidentified gunmen operating on
three speedboats attacked soldiers attached to the Joint Task
Force, codenamed Operation Pulo Shield, in the Niger Delta region.
“The gunmen in three speedboats accelerated towards the soldiers who
were going to Ogbia waterside and opened fire on them. The soldiers were
taken by surprise and they could not react quickly. After shooting the
soldiers, the gunmen immediately fled the scene”, a source said.
Eyewitnesses said the police and military personnel were ambushed by
the yet to be identified gunmen suspected to be pirates in separate
attacks.
May the officers souls rest in peace.
